Ask HN: How popular are internationalized domain names?

2 points by supahfly_remix 8y ago ↗ HN

For countries without Latin-based scripts, do you type internationalized domain names (IDNs with punycode) in your browsers? How about countries with accents (e.g., France, Spain)?

I just counted the domain names starting with the xn-- punnycode in the URL database of URLfilterDB and the punnicode URLs are 0.02% of all domains.
